Only ones I love are Crime Story and New Police Story.Rest vary from Crap to Good but nothing spectacular.Most after First Strike are pretty dire in fact.

You don't think Drunken Master II is spectacular??!!!!!!!!!!!

[instant noodles]

You don't think Drunken Master II is spectacular??!!!!!!!!!!!

No,sorry...I like some scenes but not movie overall.

[masterofoneinchpunch]

I've seen all of those except Rush Hour 3 (2007) and Shinjuku Incident (2009).

My least favorites would be The Myth and Rush Hour 2 and ...

I wasn't particularly thrilled with Rush Hour (though I have seen it several times and with the commentary where Brett pretty much states he ripped off as much as he could from other JC films), but the second just did not do much for me. Too much retread, they did not look like they were even having fun with the film.

I put The Myth out of my head after I watched it. I try my best not to think of it.

Now maybe I think Thunderbolt is the worst. The overuse of severe undercranking was just plain silly in the car races (I know they could not do the scenes at full speed, but they should have went elsewhere), Michael Wong's presence rarely helps a film though to be fair I did like the pachinko parlour scene.

"Rush Hour 3" is the worst. It's utterly dire.

[make believe]

Looking at this list I guess around 1998 I sort of stopped watching his movies. You can blame it on Rush Hour maybe.

Twin Dragons (1992) - good but kind of cheap and hasn't held up very well.

Police Story 3: Supercop (1992) - cool but not as good as it could have been.

City Hunter (1993) - painful to watch.

Crime Story (1993) - only saw bits and pieces. shame on me indeed.

Drunken Master II (1994) - classic. if you disagree, you're wrong

Rumble in the Bronx (1995) - great movie. dumb, yes. but so entertaining.

Thunderbolt (1995) - i barely remember this one other than one intense fight in a casino

Police Story 4: First Strike (1996) - ok. at this point you could tell it was over for him

Mr. Nice Guy (1997) - entertaining but like first strike it was the beginning of the end.

Who Am I? (1998) - I actually liked it more than expected. a step up from his last two

Rush Hour(1998) - it was amusing the first time but watching it sober is not nearly as amusing.

Gorgeous (1999) - I still haven't seen it

Shanghai Noon (2000) - I can't bring myself to see this yet.

The Accidental Spy (2001) - Same as above.

Rush Hour 2 (2001) - Saw it partially. That was a struggle.

The Tuxedo (2002) - Is there such a thing as negative 5 stars?

Shanghai Knights (2003) - I haven't even seen the first part.

The Medallion (2003) - Never saw

Around the World in 80 Days (2004) - Never saw

New Police Story (2004) - Better than I thought only because the drama was well done.

The Myth (2005) - Never saw

Rob-B-Hood (2006) - never saw

Rush Hour 3 (2007) - don't think I will ever see.

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008) - never saw

Shinjuku Incident (2009) - I want to see this one.

[Monk Sante]

I dislike Jackie's work after Drunken Master 2. I thought Twin Dragons was a cool movie.

[AbeRudder]

I dont mind this period of Jackie as much as some people here. My favourites from this era are Crime Story, DM2, Twin Dragons and Police Story 3. The worst ive seen are the Tuxedo and The Medallion, those were shameful. I enjoyed the Rush Hour series quite a bit, they arent up to his old standards but i thought they were pretty entertaining.

[Killer Meteor]

City Hunter, Crime Story and Shanghai Noon are both 4/5 for me. The rest - meh. Enjoyable but in many case pretty weak and in the case of Rumble and R-B Hood downright painful!

[cooksandkungfoodle]

The rest I either haven't seen or didn't care for.

[masterofoneinchpunch]

I'll have fun with this format:

Twin Dragons (1992): **½/**** About time for a rewatch.

Police Story 3: Supercop (1992): ***/**** Quite a fun film.

City Hunter (1993) **/**** This might depend on how much you like Wong Jing.

Crime Story (1993) ***/**** Solid acting, a so-so ending mars this a bit.

Drunken Master II (1994): ****/**** One of my favorite MA films (along with the first)

Rumble in the Bronx (1995): ***/**** First JC film seen in theater; have seen at least five times.

Thunderbolt (1995): *½/**** Oh do the driving scenes sink this film.

Police Story 4: First Strike (1996) **½/**** Some good scenes; didn't like it as much the third time I saw it.

Mr. Nice Guy (1997): Review

Who Am I? (1998) ***/**** I really need to do a rewatch on this.

Rush Hour(1998) **½/**** Not too much original; but decent.

Gorgeous (1999) **½/**** Have not seen the longer version yet.

Shanghai Noon (2000): ***/****

The Accidental Spy (2001): **½/****

Rush Hour 2 (2001): **/**** Too much taken from first film which was not that great.

The Tuxedo (2002): **/**** Overuse of wires.

Shanghai Knights (2003): **½/**** Decent; have already seen a couple of times.

The Medallion (2003): **½/**** Also decent

Around the World in 80 Days (2004): **½/**** Can't explain why I liked it, probably a defect.

New Police Story (2004): **/**** could not get into, but been spoilt by To for serious films.

The Myth (2005): *½/**** had too many issues.

Rob-B-Hood (2006): - 1000+ word review

Rush Hour 3 (2007) - Own but not seen

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008) - 1000 word review

Shinjuku Incident (2009) - Not Seen

[dragonherb]

the 3 movies I like the least:

Twin Dragons (1992).. okay but not my cup of tea.

The Tuxedo (2002).. worst of them all!

Rob-B-Hood (2006).. Disposable movie. Entertaining to watch once but afterwards it's used up like a bubblegum with no flavour.

6 movies on the filmography left to watch for me (Rush Hour 2, Rush 3, Around the World in 80 Days, The Myth, The Forbidden Kingdom and Shinjuku Incident).

[thehangman]

Accidental spy i hated this one

Tuxedo

the medallion

the myth

[Grimmjow]

I will join in, previously a huge Jackie Chan fan!

Twin Dragons (1992)- Like the comedy although at times goes too far, some nice fights

Police Story 3: Supercop (1992)- Really like this, great stunts

City Hunter (1993)- Like a live action anime, great fun!

Crime Story (1993)- Very good movie

Drunken Master II (1994)- Dare I say a tiny bit overrated but still very very good

Rumble in the Bronx (1995)- Great untill the finale

Thunderbolt (1995)- Liked it a lot first time, second time not so much

Police Story 4: First Strike (1996)- The abscence of any strong fights was a worrying sign

Mr. Nice Guy (1997)- Crap and again a taste of things to come with the Running Chan

Who Am I? (1998)- Excellent, agree with the others - last classic Chan movie

Rush Hour(1998)- Racist unfunny Chan lite

Gorgeous (1999)- Brad Allen alone makes this worth watching

Shanghai Noon (2000)- Quite good at the time, not aged well

The Accidental Spy (2001)- Bad, took me 3 attempts to finish, just dosn't grip you

Rush Hour 2 (2001)- A little better then the first but still shit

The Tuxedo (2002)- Why Jackie??

Shanghai Knights (2003)- A huge waste of Donnie Yen and a potential screen duel of a life time!

The Medallion (2003)- Why does Bey Logan mention this so much in his commentarys??

Around the World in 80 Days (2004)- Could of been better..........but it wasn't

New Police Story (2004)- False dawn, the assembled cast was good, but the wire's were obvious

The Myth (2005)- Crap

Rob-B-Hood (2006)- Enjoyed it at first viewing but not gonna hold up in 10 yrs, cute baby

Rush Hour 3 (2007)- Why oh why

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)- Good for what it was but could of been so much better

Shinjuku Incident (2009)- Hopefully see this soon

There's more great films to come soon everyone!! Have you heard of The Spy Next Door and the Kung Fu Kid! ?

Please Jackie re-think your career!

[Guest WuxiaFan]

I think these are classics:

DRUNKEN MASTER II-IMO, one of the greatest of all time.

RUMBLE IN THE BRONX-forget the story, the fights are some of the best ever filmed, IMO

MR. NICE GUY-forget the story, the fights are some of the best ever filmed, IMO, especially the door scene! Plus the final scene with the dump truck was a great ending.

POLICE STORY 3: SUPERCOP-classic w/Michelle Yeogh

I think these are honorable mentions:

POLICE STORY 4: FIRST STRIKE

FORBIDDEN KINGDOM

I will have to check out WHO AM I? - haven't seen it. The RUSH HOURs were just stupid.

[blue_skies]

Probably the worst of the bunch would have to be City Hunter, although I have not seen anything after new police story except for rush hour 3. For me it didn't even feel like a Jackie Chan film

I would also concur with who am I? As being the last great Jackie Chan film. I also really loved rumble in the Bronx and of course the wonderful police story 3: Super cop.

[One Armed Boxer]

The Medallion (2003)- Why does Bey Logan mention this so much in his commentarys??

Because he co-wrote the script!

Personally I would have made this list from 1998 onwards, I still enjoy most of his pre-'98 work...especially Police Story 3, Rumble in the Bronx, Drunken Master II, & even Mr Nice Guy.

I still need to check out Twin Dragons & Thunderbolt.

After '98 things gradually go from bad to worse, with perhaps the exception of New Police Story.

[lillippa328]

New Police Story was tight...

and i love Shanghi Noon...Knights was cool too...Rush Hours were good aswell, tho 3 lacked in action, still funny....

Shinjuku was good too....drama!

[massa_yoda]

Twin Dragons (1992)- Uneven, good kicking power from Chan. ** out of ****

Police Story 3: Supercop (1992)- Good all-around movie, benefits from Yeoh. ***

City Hunter (1993)- Ridiculous. Sometimes good. **

Crime Story (1993)- Solid, but more for story and acting, not for fighting. ***

Drunken Master II (1994)- The obvious classic ****

Rumble in the Bronx (1995)- My first Kung-fu. Chan is still plenty fast and powerful here. A good showcase even if it's missing a good finale. ***1/2

Thunderbolt (1995)- Fun, but corny. Good fighting, but Chan was doubled a lot. **1/2

Police Story 4: First Strike (1996)- Decent movie. One great fight. **1/2

Mr. Nice Guy (1997)- Forgettable. *1/2

Who Am I? (1998)- Rewatching this, Chan is starting to look slow. Still great. ***

Gorgeous (1999)- A couple good bouts with Brad Allen lifts this one up. **3/4

Shanghai Noon (2000)- Love it. ***

The Accidental Spy (2001)- Not so bad to me. More of a straight actioner than fighitng. **1/2

Rush Hour 2 (2001)- LEAST FAV NOMINEE! *

The Tuxedo (2002)- LEAST FAV NOMINEE! *

Shanghai Knights (2003)- Good fun. Chan's best work in US. ***

The Medallion (2003)- A little underrated IMO. An example of how music and sound FX can actually ruin a perfectly good movie. **1/2

Around the World in 80 Days (2004)- Meh. Not horrible... **

New Police Story (2004)- My Fav of Chan's newer efforts. ***

The Myth (2005)- Forgettable, other than the glue factory scene. **

Rob-B-Hood (2006)- A balance of cringe-worthy scenes and not half bad scenes. **

Rush Hour 3 (2007)- Better than 2. I think i'm alone on this opinion! **

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)- This one was just fine. ***

Shinjuku Incident (2009)- From the way people talk i can't see myself hating this one. We'll see.

New Police Story (2004)- Laughable plot. Even more laughable acting. *1/2

The Myth (2005)- Not good. *

Rob-B-Hood (2006)- Boring as hell and too cute for its own good. *

Rush Hour 3 (2007)- Awful. Digital Jackie double??!! You kidding me?!?! 0 stars

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)- A pleasant surprise! ***

[HyperDrive]

I'd have to say the Tuxedo is the worst followed by The Medallion and The Myth and so on. These might get trumped next year when The Spy Next Door comes out.
